How Touchstone Handles Duplicate Exposure Set Names in Multiple Exposure Databases

It is possible to import data with the same exposure set name into multiple exposure databases. Therefore, if you select exposure sets that have the same name but that are on different databases, Touchstone will add the database name to the exposure view name.

For example, ClientX's "HurricaneGina" exposure set is stored on two databases, "TropicalCyclonesUS" and "TropicalCyclonesOutsideUS". Using the following format, where "ClientX" is the "optional_prefix",

[optional_prefix]_ExposureSetName_ExposureSetDatabaseName

the name of each exposure view containing "HurricaneGina" would be:

  • ClientX_HurricaneGina

  • ClientX_HurricaneGina_TropicalCyclonesOutsideUS

If there is a duplicate database name, Touchstone adds a number (or increases it) after the database name, starting with "1" and then increasing the number as needed, as in:

  • ClientX_HurricaneGina_TropicalCyclonesUS

  • ClientX_HurricaneGina_TropicalCyclonesOutsideUS_1
